Well actually it found me, lol. I have been fixing up an old Tamiya Monster Beetle for my neighbors son that she found at a garage sale. So I told her when she goes to yard sales to call me if she comes across one of the GI Joe Jeeps, that I wanted one for a future scale r/c project. So tonight her husband comes over with some parts I had him order for the beetle, and along with the parts is one of the Jeeps, says it was his sons and he doesn't play with it anymore, and he knows how much I want one, and how much I love Jeeps, so he gave it to me. I was stoked to say the least. This will take me a while to do, but I don't care. I'm actually thinking of stripping down my Axial crawler to use its parts to build this. It's in pretty decent shape too considering it was a played with toy for 7 years. The steering wheel is cracked, and it's missing the windshield and the shovels on the side, but I should be able to find them on evilbay, or make a new windshield myself from styrene. Anyway. here's some pics of it just as I got it tonight.
